I purchased a Infocus LCD projector from Tracy off eBay. The projector worked for a few days, crashing every half hour or so (never using a LCD projector I thought it was just over heating and had to let it cool down). After the third day the projector died.
Sent numerous emails requesting help or a refund, she states "Wanted to return 80 days later. Unreasonable. We are not a rental center.", which is a lie. Within a week of having serious problems I got in touch with her.
She told me the projector was as-is and there was nothing she was going to do about it.
The auction states the projector was pulled from working condition, but after taking it to a authorized Infocus service center I was told that to have the projector repaired it would cost $2,000. The power supply and controller board need to be replaced.
She also posts in my "eBay Feedback":
"His user name tells you everything. Beware!"
-- Now I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean... Everyone has the right to use the user name of their choice and has no right to slander me online. As of January 1999 I have received 1 Negative Feedback which was resolved outside of eBay.
She also states "Beware!"
-- You received your money, I received projector that was defective from the start.
People should be cautious when buying from these people, 10 Negative Feedbacks, 9 Neutrals and climbing on eBay, very rude and unhelpful.
